Driveclub: 15 free tracks added 31/10/16

[flipswitch]

I had a quick go yesterday of the new track ( but not the new hardcore driving mode) and I wasn't that impressed. I was expecting more visually, all the buildings look ordinary like they cut and pasted the same buildings all throughout the track, nothing like PGR. And the buildings themselves don't look that detailed.

So disappointed to be honest. It doesn't match up to the quality of the other circuits, and the tracks are too wide.

They're adding everything a racing game needs except 60fps. Pass.

Regular reviews take place throughout SCE Worldwide Studios, ensuring that the resources that we have in such a competitive landscape can create and produce high quality, innovative and commercially viable projects.

As part of this process we have reviewed and assessed all current projects and plans for the short and medium term and have decided to make some changes to the European studios structure.

As a result, it has been decided that Evolution Studio will close.

It is regrettable that this decision will lead to compulsory redundancies. We accept that this decision will mean that we risk losing high calibrestaff but by focusing on other Studios that already have exciting new projects in development we believe we will be in a stronger position going forward and able to offer the best possible content of the highest quality for our consumers.

Where possible we will try to reallocate people onto other projects. If appropriate opportunities are not possible within the company, we will assist staff in any way we can, including speaking with local employers and with other development companies.

Evolution has been an important part of SCE Worldwide Studios for over 10 years – working on ground-breaking racing titles like WRC, Motorstorm and DRIVECLUB.

This decision should not take anything away from the great work that Evolution has produced.

Not the news I wanted to read but it was a given.

Sad news. The post release support and content has been exceptional. Hope the talent forms another studio and they make another racer.

Can't help but think if DriveClub was 60fps this could have been avoided.

Releasing it as a completed title would have helped.

Evolution team joins Codemasters.

5.9gb patch adding new urban tracks.

From Twitter.....

The Urban Tracks update for #DRIVECLUB rolls out today, bringing tracks from #DRIVECLUBVR to the standard edition

[Rorschach]

Might re-install Driveclub. Seems like a lot of content now available for it

It's also the last patch for the game. There's a farewell message in the patch notes. Best supported game by a long shot.

I'd love to try this again but Sony screwed my license on this game, it thinks it's an expired plus version when I have a full paid one, tried support and they're fucking useless, reset this that, shit is still broken.

Isolated incident.
